Relating to the composition of the Comal County Juvenile Board.
This bill amends the composition of Comal County's Juvenile Board by specifying its six required members: the county judge, county court judges (from each county court at law), two judicial officers appointed by the district judge, the 22nd District Court judge, and the criminal district attorney. It directly affects how the board is structured in Comal County, changing its membership from prior arrangements to this defined list. The key mechanism establishes specific roles and appointment processes for board members under Texas law. The bill takes effect September 1, 2025, but was reported adversely by the Senate Criminal Justice Committee on May 7, 2025.
